One other thing to check is if the tx is marked rollback only, should
we not call anymore lifecycle events or is that "NoFurther lifecycle
callback" clause supposed to apply to the single entity that failed.
Further, I think that 3.7 trumps 3.5.6, so if an exception is thrown
from a callback during a find(), we should be marking the transaction
for rollback, rather than actually rolling it back.
That is standard EJB behavior and what I would expect from the EJB
spec committee.
